My Level Zero System
Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Hunter's way

The big guy was still immersed in the feeling of being an ambassador of justice, becoming a hero rescuing a beauty. He had no idea that the two "beauties" he wanted to save now had the intention to kill him.

He had been fond of Myra and Mera since the intensive practical course but had not had the chance to approach them, so the big guy wanted to take this opportunity to gain favor with Myra and Mera.

At the same time, the big guy stood up because of jealousy towards Kain.

And that's why Kain stood up.

If he didn't do that and let Myra and Mera handle it themselves, the rumors would only spread further, and then the influence of the rumors would not be just a few empty words.

Kain never looked down on human imagination.

Kain walked closer to the big guy, the two of them were so close that a wave of his hand could impact the other person.

An invisible pressure fell on the big guy, causing him to swallow his saliva. He instantly panicked, clearly Kain had remained calm and did nothing.

"Big head…"

"I... I'm Hector! Not a big head!"

Hector was furious, but Kain didn't seem to care and just spoke casually.

"It seems you are quite jealous of me?"

"Jealousy? How could that be…"

"Of course this has nothing to do with strength, because my reputation is already very bad. It can only be because of... this face. Am I right?"

Kain smiled slightly.

"You are young, in a stage of rampant hormones, always wanting to show off to others. But you are very self-conscious."

"You've trained your body quite well, but that can't change your face. You're not the type that girls like, which only magnifies your inferiority complex."

"When you stand up, you always keep your arms crossed, but this is not a posture to show off your majesty, because your chest is instead of being raised, it is slumped. You have unconsciously reflexively protected yourself from the scrutiny of too many people."

"Your eyes, or rather your focus is almost never on the right place in the situation you are facing, you must be insecure, a very self-conscious person, any action you take will be replayed in your mind, of course with a better situation. A paranoid and relatively narcissistic person because you are always insecure."

"And let me guess, you wanted to approach Myra and Mera before, but you couldn't replace the opportunity. That's why you risked jumping out this time, playing the childish hero saving the beauty game to win the girls' favor. At the same time, you were also jealous of my face, jealous that they surrounded me, jealous that you should have taken my place, jealous that another girl mentioned my name... all of which hit your small self-esteem."

"Am I right?"

Hector's face was blank, filled with anger but also extreme fear.

He didn't know how Kain knew all this, it was like he could read minds.

Kain doesn't enjoy exposing others, but that doesn't mean he doesn't do it.

But he also left a way for Hector to live by coming close and making a sound that only this big guy could hear.

However, this is not Kain's main purpose.

"Let's do it."

"Wh... what!"

Hector jumped, looking at Kain like he was looking at a monster.

He now regretted his haste. If this matter were to spread, not to mention showing off to girls, his reputation would be ruined.

"Let us have a duel with weapons. If you win, I will do as you ask."

Hearing this, Hector was surprised, then overjoyed.

Because fighting with weapons was his forte! Kain challenged him in the field he was most proud of.

In his excitement, Hector quickly agreed.

The whole class was in an uproar, what was originally a verbal dispute had now turned into a physical fight.

With the permission of the instructor in charge of the practical class, Kain and Hector stood facing each other on the training ground, surrounded by the other students.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Someone shouted, gradually it turned into a wave.

Hector became even more excited, feeling like his whole body was shaking, as if the fear he had felt earlier when all his deepest secrets were exposed was non-existent.

As for Kain, his eyes and expression remained unchanged, as if this moment had been within his expectations.

Sometimes, the hunter will not surround the prey too tightly, but will leave the prey an escape route.

The prey will be happy and will try its best to run along that escape route, completely unaware that that route is the hunter's real trap.

The farther you run, the closer you are to death.

"Both sides should choose the weapons and limit injuries."

At the teacher's command, a line of weapons was brought out before Kain and Hector.

These weapons are all made of wood, and were originally intended as training tools for students during combat lessons.

Hector chose a large sword, suitable for his size, while Kain only chose a small dagger.

The match began, Hector couldn't wait and charged towards Kain like a wild beast, the large sword in his hand swung vertically, immediately creating an effect that seemed to split the air in two.

It can be said that Hector is a very strong opponent if only fighting with cold weapons, he has great strength and has been trained in martial arts. Each of Hector's slashes is extremely powerful and smooth, as if he has gone through countless times of practicing swinging his sword.

Kain would also have a hard time winning in a direct fight, after all his fighting style still leans more towards surprise attacks.

But that's just under normal circumstances.

A true warrior is a warrior who is physically and mentally fit.

But obviously, Hector wasn't.

Hector attacked Kain in a frenzy, as if he was losing his mind.

He did not notice that his steady steps had gradually lengthened.

He didn't realize that his thumb holding the hilt of the sword had unconsciously tightened, causing the greatsword's center of gravity to change slightly.

He didn't realize that his breathing was getting heavier with each failed attack.

It was only when Kain's knife was pressed against his neck that Hector awoke from his dream.

"Hector, you lose."
